This one’s for the Wordle: Plasma Arc Incineration
I made a video of a poem I wrote last week.
video poem
Since I am back in school to get my degree, I am writing for class. I will share one from that, although, because it is about wind and there is wind blowing on the video prompt, I give myself bonus points.
An Ill Wind Blows

I worked with the word cloud this week…

Christine, I didn’t have the time this week to finish video. But I will. At any rate, here is the poem I wrote for my project.
So together we wait for the return.
Hello, my name is Sherry Little and I am a poet, and I did write a poem, My Vision, for President Bill Clinton and another poem, Giving a Helping Hand, for President George Bush. My web site is sherrylittlepoems.com Both Presidents wrote a letter to me. Sherry Little

Hi Sherry,
We are a community of poets who generally engage via prompts. Kind of a (verrry) loose call & response, rather than being merely a self-promoting exercise kind of site.
I won’t delete your comment, but do ask you to read all about us. And then leave us a link to a poem. Some time.

This piece ‘auto-posted’ at midnight last Wednesday. However, I just discovered that I failed to post a link here. Last week was an insanely chaotic week for me.
So here is the link, extremely late… sorry!
